Ukraine thanks Azerbaijan for humanitarian aid

Ukraine is grateful to Azerbaijan for the new batch of humanitarian aid that will help restore the country's energy sector, Ukrainian Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko said, reported from the Energy Ministry of Ukraine.

"We thank our [Azerbaijani] partners for this support. The provided equipment is used by Ukrainian energy workers to restore facilities that are still being shelled, in particular in front-line regions. The work carried out allows us to maintain stable operation of the energy system and meet the needs of consumers for electricity and heat supply,” Halushchenko noted.

On January 11, Azerbaijan sent a convoy of 25 trucks with another batch of electrical equipment to Ukraine.

According to the Ukrainian Ministry of Energy, since March 2022, Ukraine has received 92 cargoes of energy equipment from Azerbaijan with a total weight of more than 1,585 tons, including 51 power transformers, 111 transformer substations and other equipment.

"Thanks to this assistance from partners, a large-scale campaign for repairs in the energy sector was carried out in Ukraine, with more than 2.2 GW of capacity added to the energy system,” the ministry emphasized.
